Twenty-oh-no!Here we go, time to sell-out. Every end of the year, most of the people I know glitter up their multiply's, blogs and such to express the things that they want for Christmas. While probably only a couple of people who read these blogs (if not NONE) will
actually find that list useful and help cross something off that list, that doesn't stop them from making them anyway. This just goes to show the overwhelming, insatiable desire of all people. Yes, and I am one of them. Haha.
Okay, I decided to be kenkoy and express my Xmas list through song. Just so i can say I didn't ride the bandwagon entirely. Ahem.
J's Christmas Carol of Selfishness and DesireNot the season to be stingy,
Tralalalala-lalalala!
Give me gifts and wrap them pretty,
Tralalalala-lalalala!
Laptop sleeves and
notebook coolers,
CD-R king sells one for only 380.
Flash drive with 2 gigs of mem'ry,
Tralalalala-lalalala!
New
shirts that will make me pretty,
Tralalalala-lalalala!
Some at Puma, maybe Nike,
Vintage looks, graphic tees, any that's Ted Mosby
Give me gifts and wrap them pretty,
Tralalalala-lalalala!

I never seem to feel Christmas spirit until it's too late and Christmas is already here or is already over. It's kinda sad. Going to Hawaii for Christmas. A Hawaiian Cruise. Wow. Good luck Christmas spirit over there. Hahahaha. Yeah. I really hope I resolve any/all issues I have with my family very soon. After all, It IS Christmas.
Happy Holidays everyone.
